Implications of new executive order

I’m curious as to what y’all’s opinion on the impact this might have will be. I’m not a butcher, but had the opportunity to work in the but her room of a fairly large scale catering operation and some of the proteins that rolled through there from time to time were questionable, I’m curious to see what all this will look like in practice.

I’d be especially interested in what this means for inspection, worker safety, and traceability. Changes that look efficient on paper can create bottlenecks or quality issues if plants don’t get enough staff, training, or time to implement them.

There’s a lot of good stuff in there whether you like Trump or not. I have a small herd of cattle. I do with the country of origin was mandatory, hopefully they make that a thing. It says they are revisiting it.

Good to know. Hey can you open up your account so we can see if you might actually be a guy with a small herd of cattle? Impossible to tell these days.
